Fireworks at Toast to Tech

In case you missed it, MIT and the Alumni Association threw an AMAZING party Saturday night, Toast to Tech, to cap off 150 days of sesquicentennial celebrations. The Pru was lit up with MIT150 (see it in the video), there was music, dancing, a cake that had more paparazzi swarming it than the Hollywood icon of the week, and wearable glow sticks. Oh yeah, and fireworks! Enjoy a taste of them below (the end, always the best part). The band, Boston City Rhythm, was improvising the music during the display, if you can believe it. Read more about the event as well as the cake.

As for the Prudential Center lighting, MIT150 appeared in windows from the 32nd to the 49th floor: 86 spelled out MIT and 99 spelled out 150. It took more than 20 people some 3 hours to create the message.

And stay tuned. We are working furiously to bring you full Tech Reunions coverage.

I took a video of the entire fireworks show, which lasted 13 minutes. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kvsYnypQYlw
